Regression syntax for Ansary & Witerska

Here is the syntax for the following study: Questions remain about what particular dimensions of social media use may be deleterious and for whom. Within a sample of young adults (n= 199) between the ages of 18 to 22 (M = 19.67, SD = 2.139), this investigation examined frequency of consumption of negative social media content and anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and body satisfaction. Only high exposure to negative social media content was associated with poorer wellbeing. Significant interaction effects predicting self-esteem suggest possible differences in these associations as a function of race; with Latinx and black participants reporting low levels of self-esteem when engaging with high negative media content. With regard to gender identity, cisgender women, and people with a non-binary or trans gender identity who engaged frequently with SNSs reported lower body satisfaction compared to cisgender men. Implications for future work are discussed.
